The published corporate-sponsored employee gift is US$2 million, compared with US$1 million individually, in addition to processing and applicable other charges.
Do not invent payment credits
Any treatment of earlier payments must follow the actual instructions. A budget comparison is not authority to transfer, refund or reuse a payment automatically.
The official materials describe a gift to the U.S. government and a separate non-refundable processing fee, with amounts stated per person for eligible joining family members and different terms for a corporate framework. Ask the employer to write down which amounts are already paid, which remain, and whether a prior US$2 million gift is being reused for you — that route involves new vetting, current transfer requirements and abandonment of status by the prior holder. The published framework contains two distinct financial elements and they should never be collapsed into a single figure, because a gift and a fee differ in nature and possibly in treatment. Corporate arrangements also describe 1% annual maintenance and a 5% transfer fee including a new background check; additional visa-related or medical costs may apply. The official FAQ describes additional processing fees and gifts for each included spouse or eligible unmarried child under 21, so the individual figure understates the cost of including additional family members.
